Mr. Corfield

asked the President of the Board of Trade what progress is being made in negotiations with the United States of America and Canadian Governments with a view to providing the requisite ground stations for the more extensive use by civil airlines of airborne radio teleprinters.

Mr. William Rodgers

No such negotiations are taking place but in accordance with an I.C.A.O. recommendation the United Kingdom is operating one ground station on a trials basis.
